《暗黑破壞神3》打造遊戲中的經濟系統
之前小卷為大家帶來過B大關於遊戲中經濟系統的藍帖，在帖子中B大強調了在[暗黑3]中金幣的存在性以及必要性。
但是這個世界上噴子總是多的，固執己見的人還是存在的，於是就金幣是否遊戲中有用的問題，在官方論壇中又熱炒起來了。對於遊戲中以物易物來代替金幣的說法，這次B大態度依然強硬。具體請看藍帖原文：
Bashiok：
First and foremost I think it's a mistake to forget that gold was an intended currency in Diablo II. The Diablo game style isn't based on the idea that gold needs or has to be worthless and item for item trades are the only thing that work and any attempts to do otherwise will fail because it's Diablo and people don't like gold and...
Item for item trades are certainly a part of what people know from Diablo II but remembering the result doesn't mean it matches the intent.
Let's make a hypothetical.Diablo III is out and gold is worth something. There are systems or features or something within the game that you want to buy or invest in and it costs gold or gold is a large component of the cost to get it. Regardless of the specifics, you want MORE gold so you can buy some of this stuff you want. Ok.
So then you're playing and you kill something and a sweet item drops, but you don't want it. Or better yet, you could keep it for an alt but you know it's worth something, so...
You can go find someone and trade it for another item
You can go sell it on a theoretical auction system getting gold for it, which (being worth something) can then be spent on the system/feature whatever it is you want gold for/or you can turn right around and buy an item you want from the theoretical auction system using the gold you just got
我認為首要的，也是最重要的，就是別忘記了在[暗黑2]金幣是被設定流通貨幣。[暗黑]系列的遊戲風格，並不取決於金幣是否有價值，另外說以物易物才適合這個遊戲等等之類的說法是站不住腳的。因為[暗黑]就是這樣子的，不會因為玩家是否喜歡金幣而變成另外一個樣子。
以物易物的做法的確已經成為是人們說認識的[暗黑2]中的一部分。但是請謹記，以物易物只是遊戲演變的一個結果，這個結果並不意味著它就符合我們遊戲的目的。
讓我們來做個假定，[暗黑3]發行了，同時金幣變得更加有價值。在遊戲中的某個系統或者某項特性的修改需要用到金幣，你想去購買它或者進行消費，而它需要很多的金幣或者說得到它需要花費大量的金幣。至於如何細節上如何實現，現暫不討論。你想要得到更多的金幣，因此你可以購買你所需要的東西。這樣說明白了吧。
所以當你玩遊戲的時候，你會乾掉怪物然後掉落些不錯的裝備，但是你用不上他。但是你知道它很值錢，所以這時候比較好的做法是，你拾取它然後……
你可以和某些玩家進行以物易物。
你可以將它賣給系統NPC以得到金幣，這樣你就有錢在你想要系統/特性上進行消費，你也可以將它拍賣來獲取金幣，然後在系統NPC手中購買你想要的東西。
